Allah Taãla says in the Noble Qurãn, 'You are the best of nations sent to man. You command good and forbid evil and you believe in Allah'. (Aali Imraan).
Allah Taãla states that one reason for this Ummah being titled as the best of Ummah, is the practice of commanding good and preventing evil'.

After
picking groceries in the supermarket, the Niqabi sister stood in the
line to pay. After few minutes, her turn came up at the checkout
counter.

The
checkout girl who was non Hijabi Arab Muslim girl started to scan the
items of the Niqabi sister one buy one and then she looked at her with
arrogance and said :”we have in France many problems, your Niqab is one
of them!!

We,
immigrants, are here for trade and not to show our Deen or history! If
you want to practice your Deen and wear Niqab then go back to your Arab
country and do whatever you want!!” The Niqabi sister stopped putting
her grocery in the bag and took off her Niqab…

The
checkout girl was in total chock! The Niqabi girl who was blond with
blue eyes told her:”I am a French girl, not an Arab immigrant! This is
my country and THIS IS MY ISLAM!! You born Muslims sold your Deen and we
bought it from you!”

end of story

This is a fact! Many revert Muslims have stronger faith than born Muslims! SuhanAllah!

Indeed,"Islam began a stranger and, then, it will return as it began. Then bliss to the strangers!"

Is there any proof that God exists?" was asked, by an atheist, of Imam
Abu Hanifa and he replied, "Forget it! At the moment, I am busy thinking
about this ship. People tell me there is a big ship, it containsdifferent
goods on board. There is no one to steer it, no one maintaining it.
Yet, this ship keeps going back and forth; it even traverses big waves
on the oceans; it stops at the locations that it is supposed to stop at;
it continues in the direction that it is supposed to head. This ship
has no captain and no one planning its trips."

The atheist who
posed the question interrupted and exclaimed, "What kind of strange and
silly thought is this? How can any intelligent person think that some
thing like this can occur?"

Imam Abu Hanifa said, "I feel sorry
about your state! You cannot imagine one ship running without some one
looking after its affairs. Yet you think that for this whole world,
which runs exactly and precisely, there is no one who looks after it,
and no one owns it."

Hearing the reply, the atheist was left speechless but he found out more about Haqq (The Truth) and proclaimed Islam.

Imam
Shaa'fi replied to the question in the following way, "The leaves of
Toot (berries) are all but one. Each leaf tastes exactly the same.
Insects, honey bees, cows, goats, and deer live off of it. After eating
these the insects produce silk; bees produce honey; deer give musk (a
special kind of scent), cows and goats deliver off-springs. Is this not
clear evidence that one kind of leaf has so many qualities, and who
created these qualities? It is the Khaliq (Creator) who we call Allah
(S.W.T.) Who is the Inventor and the Creator."

Imam Ahmad ibn
Hanbal reflected on the question in the following way. He said, "There
is an incredibly strong fort, it has no doors, there is no way to get
in. In fact, there is not even a hole in it. From outside it glows like
the moon and from inside it shimmers like gold. It is sealed from all
sides, matter of fact it is air tight. Suddenly one of its doors breaks
down, a living thing with eyes and ears, a beautiful looking animal
appears yelling and wandering all over. So is not there a creator who
made it possible for life to take place in this secured and closed fort?
And is not this Creator better than humans? This Creator has no limit."
Imam Ahmad ibn Hanbal was referring to an egg which is closed from all
sides but Allah (S.W.T.) The Khaliq (Creator) puts life in it and a
chick pops out.
